So I thought I'd try to get all sciencey on you, here, and did some informal Google mining to see what people are talking about. I made these first two graphs in Excel all by myself!

The first is a comparison of keyboarded messaging tools: the Treo 600, the RIM Blackberry (all models), and the upcoming Motorola MPx (for spice). The listing on the left (horizontal, not the vertical label) is my Google search string, just so you can check the search terms yourself if you want. As I said, this isn't an exact science, but I tried my best to weed out false positives. The Treo wins the buzz index this round, but the MPx has a strong start for something that won't even be out until the fall.

IBM Thinkpad R50 Review 04/28/2004 10:23 AM
While it isn't the powerhouse the T41P is, the IBM Thinkpad R50 is a solid notebook with a great screen, ample processor, and well-rounded connectivity via WiFi and Bluetooth. If you need a bullet-proof $1,600 laptop (and don't have any need to play the latest games), the R50 might be...

Thinkpad "piscles"

Thinkpad "piscles" 07/30/2004 06:56 PM

About two weeks ago a green 1 pixel wide line about two inches tall appeared in the bottom right corner of my Thinkpad screen. I called warranty service today, and it looks like I’ll be without the computer for 4-7 business days while they repair it. That means I’ll need to back everything up, remove confidential information, and set up my usage environment on another computer for a week or two.

It doesn’t make me feel any better than the tech support guy I spoke to at IBM had never heard of a pixel before. He asked what it was and then kept referring to them as “piscles.”

IBM ThinkPad R51 Reviewed

IBM ThinkPad R51 Reviewed 09/24/2004 11:46 PM

BIOS reviews the IBM ThinkPad R51 and finds it to be an excellent value for a solid laptop, as long as you stay away from adding lots of the overpriced options from IBM's catalog (generally good advice when buying any laptop, really). For less that thousand dollars you can bring home a ThinkPad of your own, albeit one that is wholly unsuitable for gaming or other performance-intensive activities. That's okay, though - it's still a ThinkPad, one of the best laptops you can buy.

IBM Thinkpad X40 Review

IBM Thinkpad X40 Review 06/23/2004 09:11 AM

Like pretty much any other Thinkpad, the X40 ultra-portable won't win any prizes for its looks, especially since IBM continues to festoon its otherwise sleek black slabs of mobile computing goodness with jolly red, green, and blue stickers here and there, but man alive, they make a nice laptop. Riyad Emeran thinks so, too, after trying about the X40 for a couple of weeks -- he's calling the 1.2GHz Pentium M powered laptop the best ultra-portable around. And that's after he reviewed the Sony VAIO VGN-X505VP. Big words, too, considering the many relative shortcomings of the X40, like a slowish 4,200 RPM hard drive, 1,024 by 768 screen, and only 802.11b WiFi stock standard. The VAIO may be sexy, but the Thinkpad is more usable; that wins the day when it comes to laptops every time.

ThinkPad Battery Blues

ThinkPad Battery Blues 03/06/2004 02:09 AM
I love my ThinkPads. I've owned several. I started with a 380D, then got a 600E a bit over 4 years ago, and now I currently have a T21 (Linux) and T23 (Windows). They're the greatest non-Mac notebooks money can buy. But I seem to have a particular skill when it comes to decimating ThinkPad batteries. One of the reasons I own two T-series notebooks right now is that they can share batteries. And between them have three, numbered...

There won't be a Tablet PC-version of the ThinkPad until early 2005, at least according to Guy Kewney, but IBM will come out with some sort of slate-style Tablet PC around May of next year. But it won't be an actual IBM product, it'll be one that was built by some anonymous Taiwanese manufacturer and rebadged as an IBM Tablet PC (which is an increasingly common practice these days).
